breakfast at The Annex, Kalk Bay

Omelettes and scrambled eggs are the true test of a good cook. Utterly simple, but demanding full attention and perfect timing. Wonderful or inedible only seconds in either direction. If I had to criticise, I'd say the plate could have been warmer. But the scrambled eggs and salmon were so good that they didn't really have a chance to get cold.

Reliably good food, reasonable prices, great staff, and set in the courtyard of a beautifully restored sandstone building behind the bookshop. The Annex has become our favourite eating spot in Kalk Bay.
